Ex-Hall & Oates
axeman
does own thing with Gilt Flake genius Brad Jones at the helm.

Former session guitarist
Buchanan
is too much the veteran to fall firmly into the power pop camp, his own
songwriting illuminated by the craft and old-school style of his
current
mentor, the great Brad Jones.

New Nashville smarts and
orchestrated
pop baroque are smeared all over "Insects & Angels" and the
charged-up
folk of "The Luckiest Girl In The World". Buchanan's
got something of the Lovin' Spoonful's high hum count in his favour but
also makes rock beats sound interesting again. Very lush
and
highly addictive.
